If you really want to give up on DS(someone may be able to help you with them if not): First reinstall DeskScapes again,then use Revo set on either moderate or advanced.LINK  It's free and safe to use.After it finishes with the built in uninstaller,it will scan for leftovers.Delete anything marked in bold print. Reboot,Done.

pathfound: Your error message indicates it's trying to utilize a version of DirectX you don't have. Like Neil mentioned, grabbing the latest version of Microsoft DirectX will resolve that error (you're just missing a file included in a newer DirectX version):

After you update DirectX, what happens when you try running the uninstall then?

Why you're encountering this kind of error on uninstall is a little perplexing.
